Legal Medicine and Toxicology is a compendium of three separate but interrelated subjects. 1. Forensic Medicine encompasses everything related to potentially judicial aspects of medicine, such as injuries, assaults and death, as well as the study of the corpse. 2. Legal Medicine studies the legislation that affects the practice of medicine, as well as the main concepts of medical law. 3. Clinical Toxicology, which has a more healthcare and clinical component, reviews the most common poisonings and their diagnoses and treatments, as well as the practical approach of the intoxicated patient.
